alternate view for a drop down list

I have a drop down list that I have populated with values such as
customer names. This is what shows up in the textbox part of the drop
down list. When I hit the arrow for the drop down, I want each row
that drops down to have additional info appended to the customer name.
Something like,

If you can't modify the SQL for some reason, then you can loop through the
DataReader and concatenate the colums there before adding them to the drop
down list's items collection.
